Been of the build for a while, but back getting her ready for the summer. The front end is off a 2004 CBR 600RR. I had the stem knocked out of the KZ clamps and sleeved then pressed into the CBR trees. Everything lined up perfect too. Here's some photos.

Very, very cool. I like that you're not going with a monoshock. They might perform better but I dont think our bikes look right with it.

I hab a friend Wayne Ransom fab the swingarm and back half of the frame. I'm sure if you google his name, it'll take you to his site.

Sweet project you've got going.

A great tip for engine painting. Instead of taping up all the side cover locations, put the side covers in a shopping bag and put them back on. That way they're safe from paint and the openings are sealed. Saves lots of time.
